There's a lot to blog about but I cannot post and upload lately. There are lots of thoughts and feelings that I want to share but I just cannot. My blog hits grew exponentially since December and I was truly happy about it. Majority of those hits were from my actual and real friends, cousins, officemates and other acquaintances that finally got a wind of my URL. Nothing beats the satisfaction of seeing higher than your usual numbers in your hit counter and IP address tracer. But it also comes with a price. It was easier for me to write and share feelings before when I know that my blog is just being read my bestest bestfriends, my on-line and blog buddies (that I haven't met in real life), and total strangers. It was harder for me to write and say things now when I know that everyday people in my life, my family and cousins, close friends, other friends, friends of friends and acquaintances drop here occassionally. Weird, huh? I dunno why. I guess there are just some things that I can say to strangers which I cannot share to other people who are not my bestfriends. It's hard when you know that your regular people "might judge" after reading something here. Plus, the IP addresses that are popping in my tracer are too weird lately and I actually don't know who's reading my blog. It might even be a future employer or interviewer. Scary! Anyway, I truly am more careful and cautious lately on what I post and say here since some of my precious words might be use against me in the future. Ladidah...

This realization became even more evident when an acquaintance saw me at the mall two afternoons ago. She told me that she did not recognized me because of my *ahem* tan. I told her that I got it when I went beaching a couple of weeks ago. Then she said: "Oh yeah, I know! You went to Cocobeach, right?". She told me that she heard someone from her office mentioned that I went to Galera two weekends ago. That surprised me since I haven't seen her nor her circle of friends for quite some time. Well, the information probably came from this blog which I dunno they know about.

About me

Hi, I'm Abbie! Welcome to my blog!

I've been blogging since 2003 and I usually write about personal stuff. Now, I just TRY to blog whenever I can. I write about my views and reviews on social media, pop culture, lifestyle, gadget & tech, pageants, skin care, food, travel, and recently, our wedding and the preps we had.

I am a telco-girl-turned-makeup girl with a cool digital job that basically requires me to be on Instagram and Facebook most of the day - which is not as easy and awesome as it sounds - but I love it nonetheless.
